Unmarred – A Nonet

Dissociation is such a bitch
Bites me in the ass every time
Though I never can see it
Rushing fast towards me
To tear at my heart
Pick me apart
Though unmarred
Deeply
Scarred

    1. In a way, it’s a protective shell against a traumatic situation, but who really knows what happens inside that shell?

      Everything can still break inside, and no one will ever really know.

Got something to say? Spill the beans!
